The Fire.AIarn, BeIls.

COMMISSIONERS WEBB THINKS THEY SHOULD BE
ABOLISHED.
District Commissioner webb, in q recent con-
versation. said that in his opinion the nre-alarm
bells should be done away with. He contended
that 1t is only necessary for the fire and police de-
partments to be apprised OF fire and its location.
He maintained that the loud-toned bells serve
only to attract crowds OF idlers and OF the curious
TO fires, and that these crowds are i'm the way of
the fremen and the policemen, and obstruct their
efforts to extinguish the flames and save property.
Commissioner Webb suggested that instead OF the
bells, gongS should be used only at fire depart
ment houses, and police stations.
One objection urged against the commissioners
plan Is that IL would deprive merchants and bust
ness men generally, who do not reside at their
places OF business, OF the means OF knowing when
their property is endangered by lire. Under the
present system the business man goes to his home
at night, with the assurance that IL a fire occurs
within or near his business premises he will be
warned OF 1t by the fire-alarn.
